The home on the Sprague River was exactly what we needed for a memorable family getaway. The home is very well appointed, the host has put a lot of thought into the comfort of their guests. The property is absolutely beautiful a great place to get away, connect to nature and each other. We would absolutely consider staying there again.

Beautiful, Comfortable, Quiet, Relaxing

We had an amazing four day/three night stay this October 2023. Very comfortable and well appointed, private house. Nice wood stove to take the chill out of the air with plenty of dry firewood. Amazing sunrises, big country and wonderful views - dozens of windows. Right on the river - we caught plenty of 8-16 inch trout. Glorious east facing home with a wonderful deck, and wide views to the north and south. Well appointed living room, kitchen, and bedrooms. Our hosts were responsive and friendly. This is a gem of a house - an excellent value. Thanks for having us!

Gateway to Crater Lake National park

Found a very quiet and comfortable place to stay close to the park. Comfortable and scenic, plenty of space for a family and more. Enjoyed the nearby river, walking path and watching/listening to the cows nearby. Good night sleep had by all at the end of the day.

Wonderful Stay!

Loved staying here so much! the surroundings are beautiful, stars amazing, little stream down the hill idyllic. We arrived with three toddlers who all immediately fell in love with the cows that rotated around different fields throughout the day. Cindy and Dave were wonderful and hospitable hosts, and even introduced our clan to her nursing cow. Can't wait for another excuse to find ourselves here again.

Beautiful place on a ranch, close to Crater Lake.

My wife and I had a great time at this very serene location on a rustic ranch. Cindy and Dave were great hosts and very responsive. This was a great place to stay for a trip to Crater Lake, which was less than an hour away. The cabin is wonderful with every amenity that you could ever need. We plan on coming back again!

Paradise on the Sprague River!

Beautiful home with everything you need for a getaway on the Sprague! We enjoyed sitting on the deck, walking down to the river, watching the deer, cattle, and birds. Short drive to the Williamson River, Wood River, Crater Lake. Cooked in the well equipped kitchen, barbecued on the deck and got great night’s sleep in the comfy beds. Great hosts with helpful information about the ranch. We can’t wait to return!

Beautiful, quiet retreat

It was just amazing to wake up each morning and sit on the deck and look at the cows and river. We could just take beautiful walks on property or choose to explore other things in this beautiful region - Crater Lake, the Williamson River, The Sprague River - running right through the property, Lake of the Woods, Rogue River Gorge, Agency Lake, The Wetlands nearby with excellent bird watching, the Klamath County Museum. We had a day that we went to Ashland and Medford. We stayed here 10 days and just had a fabulous time. I was worried about the no A/C thing but the house stayed surprisingly cool and had ceiling fans. We had a BBQ on the deck half the nights. It was a great stay.

Luxurious house on a working ranch complete with hiking trails, swimming holes and magnificent views

With tastes ranging from the always-active to the sedentary, our stay catered to everyone's tastes: a great kitchen, comfortable rooms, a river to swim in and to fish, hikes and views from the house of a magnificent landscape. Seniors and adults, children and dogs: we had a vacation to remember forever. Many thanks to our hosts whose graciousness made us feel so welcome.

Beautiful home near hunting unit.

This home is beautiful with amazing views, sunrise and sunsets. We are a small cattle farm family, so staying at a ranch and hearing the cows was pleasing to us. The owners are so nice. Our son had a youth hunt for deer in the Sprauge Unit, which was pretty much across the road. Unfortunately, his tag was not filled, but we had a wonderful time staying in the house. My son also uses a wheelchair and was able to maneuver all over the house once we carried him in. Nice big open floor plan, large windows in the dining and living room to take in the view. The house came with all you need to cook with. Just bring food since there is not a grocery store near by. We loved all the cowboy pictures and cattle brand displayed on various things in the house. The covered back porch was nice. We didn’t get a chance to go fishing but did take the dogs for walks around the property. It was a nice get-a-way house and we absolutely will stay again if we plan to visit the area again. Thank you so much!

Relaxing!!

This house was as advertised! We had such an amazing and relaxing time at this house. Our dogs loved the open area to roam, run, and swim in the river. Our kids also enjoyed the big yards and the river as well (especially our son who loved swimming with our dogs!). I enjoyed the river for fishing. Caught a personal best trout, 20". Listening to the coyotes at night was so cool! Cindy was responsive and provided any info needed or answered any questions. Overall we would recommend this house to anybody who loves nature and just getting away from the busy city. Would love to come back again!

Home on Cattle Ranch in Oregon Mountains

It was an absolutely stunning experience. It was so incredibly clean; really lived up to all the fantastic reviews. The house sits on a picturesque property and is well appointed and very comfortable. The beds, lovely sheets, plush towels, patio dinning, I could go on, were all wonderful. Cindy was a fantastic host and super helpful. We felt comfortable and ‘at home’ away from home- a lovely experience.

Quiet and Beautiful

First the house. Everything was perfect. Big open living area and kitchen for hanging out. The wood stove provided plenty of warmth. Everything was clean and there all you needed for cooking. The bedrooms were comfy and there are lots of windows to take in the river and see the sunrise. The property was majestic. We spent so much time just taking in the view. We saw all kinds of birds; quail, swans, geese eagles, hawks, to name a few. The clouds even broke one night for an incredible view of the stars and we listened to the coyotes call back and forth to each other across the valley. Cindy was super nice. She called just to make sure everything was right. And Victor, the land manager, was super friendly too. I couldn't ask for more!

Even better than the pictures!

Our family (2 adults & 2 kids) had an amazing 3 night stay at this property. The house and the property are even more beautiful in person. Our main purpose in visiting the area was to go to Crater Lake, but honestly we enjoyed being on the property more than going to Crater Lake. The views are amazing. It is so peaceful. We went for long walks on the property, rode inner tubes on the river (a little cold in Oct), roasted marshmallows in the fire pit, and spent time on the deck just enjoying the quiet. The kids loved exploring the property and petting the cows/calves that were in a pasture right near the house. The owners were wonderful to work with. We had originally planned to go in August, but because the air quality was so bad due to the wildfires they worked with us to find another time to visit. Since we have been home, we have been recommending this property to all of our friends. We want to go back!

Soooo Beautiful, wished we could have stayed longer...

We have never rented (at any price point) a more meticulously clean, well stocked rental. Also of note were the amazingly comfortable beds and high end linens. Fishing at sunset on the property at the Sprague River was a great way to end the day. Great communication with the owners. If you are looking for a unique and off the beaten path rental, this one is for you!

About the host

Hosted by Dave and Cindy Thompson

Dave and Cindy Thompson. Live on the property year round. We have been in the cattle business for approximately 30 years. Our vacation rental home is on our property which is part of the cattle ranch. Our home is approximately 300 yards and up a slight hill from our guest home.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property as a place to bring cattle from ranch in California to summer grass. We were originally only going to stay in Oregon for 6 or 7 months of the year. The river views and the surrounding forest along with our meadows of cattle grazing are such a wonderful place for us we decided to make this our full time home. It is a very quiet and peaceful place to live.

What makes this property unique

The view of the river and surrounding forest is absolutely beautiful, along with all the wild life. There is a large variety of bird watching. Canadian geese fly over and land in river all day. We always have a family of Osprey that hatch on a power line box in one of our pastures during early summer. Occasionally deer will walk thru our pastures. You will have access to all parts of the river that is located on the property. There will be limited access to some parts of river during cattle operations. We have a good fishing spot where some 5 to 8 lb trout have been caught. It is catch and release. There are many surrounding places to site see.
